Content management application for an interactive environment

Abstract

The content management application is an intranet application which provides a process for implementing changes to an internet website of a company by providing the company the ability to define and enforce a common style of page layout. The application can be accessed via a desktop browser and multiple users may access the application for multiple reasons at the same time. The application also dynamically generates new page designs and new component design with various people assigned to groups or teams enabling the continuous creation and processing of content. Once the content is created and reviewed, it is then launched onto the company's internet site for viewing by the internet users accessing the company's web page.

1. A system, comprising:
 a non-transitory memory communicating with a processor for facilitating changes to webpage content on a server, 
 said memory having instructions that, in response to execution by said processor, cause said processor to perform operations comprising: 
 facilitating, by said processor and via an application, removal of a portion of said webpage content to create removed webpage content; and 
 maintaining, by said processor, said removed webpage content for subsequent audit, wherein said removed webpage content includes audit information associated with said application. 
 
     
     
       2. The system of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 rejecting said webpage content; 
 returning said rejected webpage content to said application for revision; 
 revising said webpage content; and 
 returning said revised webpage content to said application for review. 
 
     
     
       3. The system of  claim 1 , further comprising allowing an administrator to at least one of identify, create, assign and modify workflow groups. 
     
     
       4. The system of  claim 1 , further comprising allowing an administrator to grant varying levels of access based on workflow groups. 
     
     
       5. The system of  claim 1 , further comprising updating said webpage content with at least one of a copyright, date stamp, and a copyright creator. 
     
     
       6. The system of  claim 1 , further comprising monitoring said webpage content, wherein said webpage content is removed from said server following expiration of a pre-determined time period. 
     
     
       7. The system of  claim 1 , further comprising launching said webpage content by converting XML to HTML, wherein said webpage content is XML. 
     
     
       8. The system of  claim 1 , further comprising defining content modification privileges for a cell of said webpage content. 
     
     
       9. The system of  claim 1 , further comprising allowing a reviewer to interface with said application. 
     
     
       10. The system of  claim 9 , wherein said reviewer rejects said webpage content and returns said rejected webpage content to said application for revision by at least one of: said author and said reviewer. 
     
     
       11. The system of  claim 10 , wherein said reviewer is at least one of: said author, an artist, a designer, an administrator, a manager, an employee, and a contractor. 
     
     
       12. The system of  claim 1 , further comprising allowing, by said processor, an author to interface with said application to at least one of edit and provide said webpage content in said application. 
     
     
       13. The system of  claim 1 , wherein said webpage content is provided in said application. 
     
     
       14. A method, comprising:
 facilitating, by a computer-based system for facilitating changes to webpage content on a server and via an application, removal of a portion of said webpage content to create removed webpage content; and 
 maintaining, by said computer-based system, said removed webpage content for subsequent audit, wherein said removed webpage content includes audit information associated with said application. 
 
     
     
       15. The method of  claim 14 , further comprising:
 rejecting said webpage content; 
 returning said rejected webpage content to said application for revision; revising said webpage content; and 
 returning said revised webpage content to said application for review. 
 
     
     
       16. The method of  claim 14 , further comprising:
 generating, by said computer-based system, passwords for providing access to said application; and 
 providing, by said computer-based system, said passwords to an administrator for communicating a separate, different password to each of a first reviewer and a second reviewer. 
 
     
     
       17. The method of  claim 14 , further comprising interfacing a reviewer with said application for receiving approved webpage content and launching said webpage content to said server for input to said server. 
     
     
       18. The method of  claim 14 , further comprising updating said webpage content with at least one of a copyright, date stamp, and a copyright creator. 
     
     
       19. The method of  claim 14 , further comprising monitoring said webpage content, wherein said webpage content is removed from said server following expiration of a pre-determined time period. 
     
     
       20. An article of manufacture including a non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a computer-based system for facilitating changes to webpage content on a server, cause said computer-based system to perform operations comprising:
 facilitating, by said computer-based system and via an application, removal of a portion of said webpage content to create removed webpage content; and 
 maintaining, by said computer-based system, said removed webpage content for subsequent audit, wherein said removed webpage content includes audit information associated with said application.
